anyone else with sm ever get that thing after you finally open up and speak a few words somewhere you finally feel comfortable, or after putting all your effort into masking, where you go home and have this sinking feeling of intense dread and hatred for yourself, where you want to throw up or punch a wall or punish yourself, because what you said was so embarrassing and shameful that you want to eradicate yourself from the face of the earth, or never talk or show your face anywhere ever again

Jesus of Nazareth was famously born of the tribe of King David of Judea, lived over a century before the country of Palestina even existed, and was executed due to the threat he posed the Roman Empire when people started calling him the King of the Jews -- and you think he was Palestinian?? How much propaganda have you swallowed? Just say you're antisemitic, at least then you'd be honest about it.
I wasn't going to answer this, because why would I justify this with a response? I know I'm not antisemtic, I've never CLAIMED to be antisemtic. I've shared so many things about how American Jews are speaking out against Israel and the way Israel silences their orthodox jewish population who speaks out against them.
( 'Not in our name': the Jewish New Yorkers speaking out against 'dehumanisation' of Palestinians (france24.com)
(We are crying with Palestinians: Jewish anti-Zionist group – Middle East Monitor)
But you send me 3 (THREE!) messages, so obviously you want me to answer you very badly.
You definitely got that statement I said from the tags of a post I reblogged, because I didn't say it in a post. And I could have worded it better, for sure. So let me clarify:
I wasn't good at religious history, and I went to catholic school so that's pretty pathetic. But I know for a fact that Palestine has pre-dates the state of Israel, and I know if Jesus was born in modern times he would be Palestinian.
He was born in Bethlehem which is IN PALESTINE, but Nazareth was conquered by Israel in 1948 so Mary and Joseph wouldn't be able to return to their hometown with their child (Nazareth in the War for Palestine: The Arab City that Survived the 1948 Nakba | Holy Land Studies (euppublishing.com)
That's the case for many Palestinians who were born before the state of Israel, they can never return to the places they were born.
Now, you said because I pointed out that Jesus would be Palestinian that makes ME antisemitic. Do you equate every Jewish person to Israel? Are you aware that there are Jews in Palestine? In fact David Ben Avraham, who had converted to Judaism was murdered by the IOF
(Palestinian who converted to Judaism shot dead by Israeli soldier in West Bank | Middle East Eye)
Are you aware the holocaust survivors in Israel live BELOW the poverty line
(One-third of Israeli Holocaust survivors live in poverty, advocates say | PBS NewsHour)
Israel does not care about Jewish people. Israel does not SPEAK for the Jewish population. They care about stealing land and increasing their power. So if you TRULY want to call out antisemitism you wouldn't be in some idiot's (me, I'm the idiot) ask box throwing out baseless accusation. You would be calling out Israel for the way they treat their Jewish citizens. You would call out the way they SHOOT their own citizens (How 3 Israeli hostages tried to save themselves, only to be killed by their own military (nbcnews.com).
You would be calling out the way they TURN DOWN a deal with Hamas because they really don't want to stop killing innocent Palestinians and they don't care about their hostages (Israeli PM Netanyahu rejects proposed ceasefire and hostage deal with Hamas | Euronews).
You would be spending all of your energy on THAT.
I truly do not think you care about Palestinian lives, really I don't. I provided you with links on ALL of my statements. But, sure, I'm gobbling down that propaganda.
You said that I should just admit it because at least I'd be honest about it. I think you should step off anonymous and say all of this with your chest, because at least you wouldn't be a coward about it.

time and all you gave - Succession; Roman/Gerri; 2,500 words. Logan dies a few hours later instead. Roman and Gerri have time to keep talking. (4.03 AU.)
Roman mutters something she misses. Then, louder, “Forget all that stuff I said earlier.”
Gerri pauses. “What?”
“Forget it. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Fuck That. You’re not fired. Everything’s normal. Psych!”
She turns around. “What are you talking about?”
He looks like he’s about to die of consumption. “It … –it was a joke, it was stupid, I was scared shitless to see you again. Did you not think that was cute? Wait a minute. Are you ladies actually not into negging?”
Liar.
She folds her arms. “It wasn’t a joke.”
He deflates. “It wasn’t a joke.”
“Logan gave the order.”
“Yeah.”
She exhales impatiently. “Then what are you doing?”
He stands up taller. “I’m taking it back.”
